Looking Great Rado! I had a fun day gardening in my Sunny basement as well! Nothing beats 365 Day Gardening!

Requesting nutes advice.
Currently adding molasses based grow.
Beginning to add bloom. Bio-grow and Bio-bloom.

Beyond these two it looks like most growers add a CalMag for flowering.

All suggestions on how to finish fertilizing considered.

If not, I go to the local hydro place on Saturday (everyone grows) and take their suggestions.
They make a compost tea there in a 10 foot high cask that smells pretty good, so I think they know their stuff.

I'm Subbed Radogast. I like your set up. I see the yellowing and as long as you have good new growth you still have some time to figure it out.
Good Growing, CO

I do 20 plant grows in Lowes 5 gallon buckets and theY are great! Didn't read al the way through but a drop or 2 of superthrive wiIIlower the stress of transplant (walmart like 8 bucks) and cal/mag does wonders for 15.50. you get 1000 waterings or more from each

Headed home from work.
Flooding in the "Laundry Room."

The laundry room appears to be the primary location of the flooding. The house A/C and my ballasts are in the basement below the Laundry room.

Thanks for all the good vibes folks.

Turned out to be the BEST possible cause given the outcome.
The washing machine itself had a slow leak, about 7 gallons filled the old front loader machine in 40 hours since last used.
When the water level inside the washer reached high enough on the door it spilled onto the tile floor.

So no roof leaks, no plumbing leaks and the washer intake hoses can be turned off when not doing laundry - and we only do laundry once a week.

The water from the Laundry room flowed down the side of the door to the flowering room and harmlessly along the concrete floor.
No electrical lines or equipment were involved in the 6 foot horizontal, 8 foot vertical flood. Plants, lights and ballasts were inches away, but untouched



So I celebrated by creating a dirt dam to turn a swap into a pond. Only a 6 inch pond, but a 14x6 foot pond where before was 14x6 foot mini-swamp

Then I, quite uncharacteristically, took a few hits off a joint.
So a very good day

Veg 20 days, total 43 days.

Green color is totally returned in 3 of 7 plants, the remaining yellow leaves are improving.

I punched holes in 2 pots and wired the top pair of branches. The punch is a little bit of overkill but works well.

Yellow is retreating. I'm nit decided about a scrog. I'm going to lst the top pair of branches, take a few clones, soon, and then decide on scrogs or no scrogs.

It's getting snug under one light. I have a second 600w hps of they need to spread out a little more.

Beautiful

23 days Veg, 46 days total.

I spent 3 nights with electrical wire and have a scrog like canopy forming.

You'll just have to imagine the photos. After 20 minutes I haven't seen an icon for photos and smilies don't work

Individual plants are growing well.

I planted broccoli over the weekend, and the lower foliage is lush do it looks like I am ready to take clones!
